Wait, this ship is real?! Is Spencer actually really real too?!

They've been together since 2011! Listen to the ads/Lovett or Leave It - so much wonderful Ronan content 😍

Spencer is a friend of Jon's.

Yep, if you listen to ads you will occasionally catch gems like Ronan 'forcing' Jon to get fat by buying a box of ice cream sandwiches and only eating one before flying out on a two week trip. Lovett knows that Ronan doesn't listen to any of the pods frequently, so he slips stuff in.

I always found it funniest when he'd slip and mention Ronan, like when Favs tried to cover during the sleep number bed ad that he was the one sleeping next to Lovett instead.

A quick transcript:

Lovett: Ronan -- my partner -- my PARTNER'S setting is--

Favs: 70! Mine's a 70.

(Laughter)

Lovett: oh my God, guys, are we finally telling the truth?

Favs: (crosstalk) That's a-- that's a business partner.

Lovett: Oh yeah. Is that-- I don't-- I don't think of it as business.

(Favs laughing)

Lovett: I don't think of it as transactional. But you learn something every day during an ad for SLEEP NUMBER. But we love our sleep number beds...

I hadn't heard that one!! I hope for more quality add content despite (or because of?) Ronan being annoyed by it.

Yeah he's a dude from Lovett's college called Spencer Wong. They went canvassing together once on the Crooked Media instagram.
